How Car-Centric Street Networks Make Buses Less Efficient
GES Master's student DW Rowlands has her maps published on CityLab in reference to how street networks afford particular types of use, "... gridded street networks are also more efficient for public transit. It's with that mode in mind that DW Rowlands,
a graduate student in human geography at the University of Maryland,
Baltimore County, has been taking a quantitative approach to the study
of urban connectivity. As part of her thesis research, she has mapped
the street intersections in eight U.S. cities to reveal how some
have inherent disadvantages that planners seeking to provide high
quality transit service can't always overcome with more buses alone."
